Weekly Wrap-up

When I was in school, we would take home a paper ever Friday called the Weekly Wrap-up. Since this post is just some random things from the past week, it seemed like a fitting title.

First off, Bryant and I have been spending a lot of quality time together in the hours between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. It's hard, I'm tired, I really dislike teething, colds, and everything else that's been keeping him awake.

Sometimes being a baby is hard.

Abby ran the last mile of her marathon this week. She did great. It was really fun to watch her run.

First lap.

First the gloves and hat came off, then the coat.

Finish line

Abby and Brinly had their first t-ball practice. They had fun, even though it was freezing. They especially liked putting their hands in the middle and shouting their team name at the end of practice.

Our t-ball "stand-outs"

Jordan has been alternating between extremely sweet and extremely naughty. Between teasing Brinly and Jordan this morning he told me about his bad dream last night. He told me that he had gotten mad at me, ran away, got lost, and wanted me to find him. He even shed a few tears during the telling. It was sweet. I'm glad I have some moments like this to remember during the times I'm so exasperated with him.

Trevor's apparently decided to enter the running for husband of the year. He's been gone a lot the last month with work, but he's still found time to help the kids clean up their messes before dinner, do some yard work, and most importantly , talk to me. I seriously appreciate his extra effort.

As for me, functioning on small amounts of sleep are not good for my mental state, but I have managed to get the necessities (such as pony costumes) done. I can't believe how busy the end of the school year gets and I only have one child in school!
